No Man’s Sky will be getting its first major update soon

No Man’s Sky will be getting its first major update soon

Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky launched with some disappointment, many found the game lacking many features, many of which were promised to them in previous teasers about the game.

Due to this, Hello Games kept quite for a few months now, which only made a lot of people’s frustrations worse.

If you are one of those people who was disappointed by the game then you might be happy to know that they have finally broken their silence, revealing their plans to launch a major update for the No Man’s Sky game soon.

They didn’t reveal many details about the update, however, they did reveal that the update will be released sometime this week, here’s what they said about it:

Hello,

This week Hello Games will be releasing an update to No Man’s Sky. We’re calling it The Foundation Update, because we have added the foundations of base building, and also because this is putting in place a foundation for things to come.

Detailed patch notes will follow, and release will be soon.

Coming from five years of intense development, immediately after No Man’s Sky released the team spent six weeks updating the game with 7 patches across both platforms (the last of these was 1.09 on Sept 24th which you can read about here http://www.no-mans-sky.com/log/). These fixed many of the most common or critical bugs and issues post-release.

In the nine weeks since then our small team has been hard at work on development, testing and certification for the Foundation Update. It won’t be our biggest update, but it is the start of something.

The discussion around No Man’s Sky since release has been intense and dramatic. We have been quiet, but we are listening and focusing on improving the game that our team loves and feels so passionately about.

Positive or negative feedback, you have been heard and that will truly help to make this a better game for everyone.

This update will be the first small step in a longer journey. We hope you can join us.
